For example, the Blue Oval has made a decision to showcase there - in front of the worldwide audience of the North American International Auto Show - the updatedFord Edge midsize SUV, complete with the all-new introduction of the ST version.

The all-new performance SUV has a 2.7-liter twin-turbocharged EcoBoost V-6 engine that churns out 335-horsepower and 380 pound-feet of torque.

The Edge ST will have a Sport mode and a fast shifting 8-speed transmission. If you want a set of red-painted brake calipers - as you should, given that it's an ST - you'll have to pay for an optional performance brake upgrade. Ford begins introducing the coveted ST brand to its SUV lineup with the unveiling of the all-new Edge ST today, building on its best-ever SUV sales year in the U.S.

All '19 Edge models get a wider and more layered grille and new front fascia, with standard LED headlamps pulled to the corners to create a wider and more planted appearance, says Steve Gilmore, design manager. It comes with standard 20-inch wheels, but a 21-inch wheel option is also available, as are Pirelli P Zero tires.

Evasive Steering Assist: Helps drivers steer around stopped or slower vehicles to help avoid collisions. A wireless charging pad, a Wi-Fi hotspot capable of connecting up to 10 devices at once, as well as the latest version of Ford SYNC, now compatible with Ford+Alexa, will make their way in the crossover. Given that the engine only makes 5 extra horsepower over its predecessor yet features stop-start technology, expect the majority of improvement to be seen in fuel economy. The development team also aimed for improved handling with a retuned suspension and larger brakes that can scrub speed off in a hurry.

Inside, the facelifted 2019 Edge features a redesigned center console featuring a new rotary gearshift dial. By comparison, the most powerful version of the Edge now makes just 315 hp and the standard-issue model is rated 245 hp.

Built at the Oakville Assembly Plant in Oakville, Ontario, Canada, the new Ford Edge and all-new Edge ST are due to arrive in showrooms this summer.
